So many trip reports have photos of places I've never been. It was cool to be familiar with your descriptions of the Narrows. That is the best time of year for a trip, too. Great report. I wish the photos had captions but I'm thinking that's Trail Groove's formatting and not your own.

*I don't want to start a thread drift, but I will say this. It was refreshing to see your friend Jon in the photographs out there with you in the canyons. Why? We just don't see enough black Americans, or any minority groups, getting out into our nation's wilderness areas.

I do mental fist pumps when I see minority groups getting outdoors. We need more of that going on.
